The movie I Am Legend is a 2007 American post-apocalyptic action thriller starring Will Smith as US Army virologist Robert Neville. Loosely based on the 1954 novel of the same name, the film is set in New York City after a virus, which was originally created to cure cancer, has wiped out most of mankind, leaving Neville as the last human in New York, other than nocturnal mutants.
Neville is immune to the virus, and he works to develop a cure while defending himself against the hostile mutants. It is the third feature-film adaptation of Matheson's novel following 1964's The Last Man on Earth and; 1971's The Omega Man.
I saw The Last Man on Earth starring Vincent Price when I was a kid. Freaked me out real bad. The scenes where people were just laying dead in the streets wherever he went gave me nightmares.
Loved The Omega Man with Charleton Heston later on.

Omega Man is best adaptation imo. Charelton Heston is legend!
